FAQ
How is this different from Project Wise Profit?
Project Wise Profit lists all projects for a month or custom period. Task Wise Profit breaks down one project by task.
How is this different from Project Summary?
Project Summary is a detailed single-project report with date range, KPI widgets, cost breakdown chart, and transaction tables. Task Wise Profit is a focused task-level profit table for the project's full activity window.
Does the report include draft documents?
Only approved transactions are included in cost and revenue figures, consistent with other project profit reports.
Why is Payslip Cost zero on a task?
No attendance or payslip allocation was linked to that task for the period, or labor has not been processed for the employees who worked on it. Unconsidered hours are not included in Payslip Cost.
Can I filter by date on this report?
The report covers all approved project activity shown in the header date range. Use Project Summary or Project Wise Profit for explicit period filters at project level.
